Pregnancy puts a lot of stress on a woman’s body. After the baby is born, it can take quite a while before a woman looks and feels like herself again. Many women search for ways to speed up the process, anxious to look and feel the way they did before becoming pregnant. Hence the mommy makeover was born. These makeovers can include a variety of treatments, some of them surgical. If surgical options seem a bit extreme but a new hairstyle and getting your nails done doesn’t cut it – no worries! You can get a complete mommy makeover without ever going under the knife.
Revive Your Skin
Your complexion can be a mess after giving birth. Gone is that rosy glow caused by the estrogen-rich blood flow experienced during pregnancy. It’s been replaced by uneven skin tone and postpartum acne. Hydrafacials can be a great way to revive your skin and a key element in the complete mommy makeover. They cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish the skin. A Hydrafacial removes old skin cells and unclogs pores which can help prevent acne. It can also help even out skin tone and reduce or eliminate postpartum dark spots. There are a variety of facials and skincare treatments to choose from. Your medical aesthetics professional can help you choose the right one to restore your skin.
Promote Hair Growth
Postpartum hair loss is normally temporary and doesn’t require surgical hair restoration treatment. However, for many women, their hair is their crowning glory and they want to see it restored as soon as possible. There are chemical treatments such as Rogaine, Propecia, and Minoxidil. However, these can result in side effects such as a dry, itchy scalp. You are also putting chemicals into your body, which isn’t something new mothers want to do.
Hair restoration can be the perfect addition to the complete mommy makeover. It is completely organic and chemical-free. Once created, the plasma is then injected into the scalp. This stimulates the stem cells in the hair follicles to promote growth. Results are typically visible in one to two months. It can take a year or more for hair to be restored on its own.
Body Contouring
Getting rid of baby weight can be a challenge. Even after the weight is gone, stubborn areas of fat or loose skin can remain. It used to be that the only way to address these issues was some type of surgery like liposuction. Now, there is a variety of non-surgical body contouring and skin tightening options. These include CoolSculpting, Emsculpt, and Forma Plus. These treatments can be used on their own or in conjunction with each other to restore your pre-pregnancy physique. A medical aesthetic professional can help you choose the best option to incorporate into your complete mommy makeover.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
Vaginal laxity is often a result of giving birth. This can have a major impact on your sex life. It can reduce pleasure for both you and your partner. It can also lead to a lack of confidence in the bedroom and even cause you to shy away from sexual activity.
Traditionally the solution for vaginal laxity was a surgical procedure known as vaginoplasty. This is a surgical procedure designed to tighten loose vaginal muscles and surrounding soft tissues. As with most surgical procedures, there are certain risks involved. With vaginoplasty, there is a risk of infection and uncontrolled bleeding. As one might imagine, there can be significant discomfort during the healing process which can take up to 6 weeks or more.
ThermiVa can be a much better option for a complete mommy makeover. It is a non-surgical procedure that uses radio frequency to deliver therapeutic heat to the treated area. This promotes collagen production, which improves the skin’s elasticity. With the ThermiVa, the integrity of the skin is improved, causing the vulva and vaginal area to gently contract and tighten.
